King Runan, I can't count on it.

But she can't just watch her family suffer and do nothing.

At this time, the first person to jump into her mind was Red Seven. This kind of thinking is really ridiculous, no matter how smart Hong Qi is, after all, she has no power or strength, what can she do at this time?

Hongda didn't expect Hongqi to make any earth-shattering miracles.

It's just that the more this time, for some reason, the more I want to see Red Seven.

Hongda left the house, and soon someone reported the news to the king of Runan. At this time, King Runan's anger also subsided a little, so he ordered to send a few more guards to protect him secretly, so as not to let anything happen to Hongda. King Runan thought that Hongda was going to the criminal department to see his father-in-law, so naturally he couldn't stop him. It's the king of Runan, if he hadn't just quarreled with Hongda, he would have to accompany Hongda to visit at this time.

"Father, you called me?"

Zhu Jinghan appeared at the door of the study, even in the face of his father, his face did not change indifferently.

King Runan nodded: "There is one thing, it is inconvenient for me to come forward, you can do it for me!" ”

He is in a high position, and at this sensitive moment, it is still necessary to pay attention. And this matter is very important, only Zhu Jinghan can reassure King Runan. Only Zhu Jinghan has enough weight so that those people don't dare to mess around. Zhu Jinghan is the future king of Runan, and no one will want to offend him lightly.

The king of Runan told Zhu Jinghan about this matter.

"Xiao Xiao's matter, I have asked our people to investigate, you don't have to worry about this. However, on the side of the Red family, I want you to keep an eye on it and be more diligent. The criminal department is all watching people cook, and the top is urging it badly, and the means of keeping it up are over. Your mother's younger sisters should pay special attention to the fact that the daughter's family is timid and weak, and if something happens, it will not be good, so don't be careless. ”

Zhu Jinghan's heart sank.

The people of the Hong family have been arrested, and she, is it the same?

Zhu Jinghan nodded.

"I see. I will go to the palace to ask my aunt to make a decree, and I must be on the side when the criminal department interrogates me. Otherwise, whatever they interrogate, they cannot count. ”

Hearing this, King Runan was very comforted, and patted him on the shoulder to express his wordless gratitude.

The original partner passed away, he married Hongda, and the relationship with that side gradually faded, and the two families maintained a face-saving relationship. However, Zhu Jinghan is the only blood left by the original partner, and the one in the palace has always been very kind to him. Zhu Jinghan rarely spoke, and the one in the palace should give him this face.

King Runan knew that Zhu Jinghan had always had a problem with Hongda in his heart.

At this time, to do this part, it must still look at his father's face, this son, although it is a little cold outside, he still has his father in his heart.

The old man of Runan was quite relieved and full of emotion, and he had the meaning of being close to Zhu Jinghan.

But seeing Zhu Jinghan take a step back to the side, he avoided the hand of King Runan, and said lightly: "The matter is urgent, sooner rather than later, then I will go." ”

Turn around and leave.

Only the hand of the king of Runan that fell in mid-air was left in the wind.

Alone.

King Runan held this position for a while, and finally came to his senses, withdrew his hand, and coughed a few times.

Zhu Jinghan entered the palace to ask for his will, and Hongda had already arrived at the Zhenbei Palace.

For the arrival of Hongda, Princess Zhenbei was quite surprised. The two have never had any friendship, and before Hong Da came, he didn't send anyone to deliver a post, so he came to the door so rashly.

However, everyone came, Hongda was also the princess of Runan, and the princess of Zhenbei still gave face, and after listening to Hongda's intentions, she originally asked someone to call Hongqi over. However, Hongda said that she wanted to go to Wutong Courtyard, so Princess Zhenbei sent someone to show her the way.

"Princess, I don't think this is usual."

Mother Yang is the most useful cronie around Princess Zhenbei, and she usually accompanies Princess Zhenbei, before Hong Dalai came, he was talking to Princess Zhenbei, and Hong Dalai did not avoid it, but stood behind Princess Zhenbei. Princess Zhenbei is the closest to her, even the few big girls who serve closely, and they have to lean back. The girls around her have changed a few times in age, only Mother Yang has never moved her nest.

At this time, she was also the first to speak.

"Oh, what do you say?"

Princess Zhenbei asked, motioning for the girl to pinch her shoulder, she has always felt a little sore here recently. She is not very interested in other people's family affairs, and when she asks this, she asks casually.

Mother Yang actually didn't pay much attention to it, how about Hongda, it was also a matter of the Runan Mansion and the Hong family, and it had nothing to do with Princess Zhenbei, so she naturally didn't care much about it, but when she found out, she casually said it as a talking point.

At this time, she sat next to Princess Zhenbei, took the fan in the girl's hand, and fanned Princess Zhenbei. After Qingming, this day is getting hotter and hotter day by day. It's still morning, and it's a little better, but in the afternoon, it's even hotter. In a few months, I'll have to go to escape the heat. Otherwise, in this palace city, you have to die of heat. When it's hot in Kyoto, it's not your average heat.

While playing the fan, Mother Yang analyzed it for Princess Zhenbei.

"This princess of Runan is not from a very good background, so she has always been very cautious and cautious in her behavior. After so many years in Kyoto, she acted in a very measured manner, went to the door without telling her, and went to see a concubine in person, when did she ever do it? Something big must have happened. And, despite the powder, I looked at her eyes, which still showed some signs of swelling, as if she had cried. ”

Princess Zhenbei nodded.

"As soon as you said it, I also felt a little bit of it, and sure enough, my eyes were a little swollen just now."

Suddenly, Princess Zhenbei thought of a possibility, and couldn't help laughing: "You say, could it be that the king of Runan has a newcomer, and the princess of Runan is jealous and loses the wind, and then she comes to Aunt Hong to cry?" ”

Women, just a few things reads over and over;

Family, husband, children.

And the woman who is married, the latter two occupy the absolute center of gravity of her life, and if she cries, eighty percent is inseparable from these two.

As soon as Princess Zhenbei said this, the girls in the room all pursed their lips and laughed.

The girl who pinched Princess Zhenbei's shoulders widened her eyes: "Princess Runan is already beautiful enough, there is no sister in Kyoto who can compare, and she is still so young." Can King Runan still be angry with her for others? ”

"It's hard to say, men, they all like the new and hate the old. No matter how beautiful the fairy is, after watching it for a long time, it is no different from a dog's tail grass. ”

Mother Yang said disapprerovingly.

The question of men and women is the favorite topic of women, the women in the house, you say a word to me, at the beginning I was still talking about Hongda, King Runan, and then I don't know which family's concubine got the favor of the male master, very rampant, and rode to the head of the wife. Some people said that if she was the wife, what about the concubine......

The room became more and more lively, but the more it was talked, the farther it went.

Under the leadership of the girl, Hongda has arrived at Wutong Courtyard, and he arrived in a soft sedan chair in the Zhenbei Palace, otherwise, on this big day, there will be more than a little sweat on his forehead.

When she arrived, Hong Qi was writing a letter to the third wife. Listening to what the third wife said that day, Hong Qi actually made a decision in his heart. However, for the sake of prudence, I carefully read all the information brought by the third wife, and then wrote a reply.

She meant the same thing as the second wife, and felt that the Wang family's Splendid Villa was better.

Although it is true that the management methods are a little lacking now, and the business is a little worse than before, he is a good person. Moreover, the Wang family cares about reputation, so they will not betray the cooperative relationship lightly, so as not to end up with a bad reputation. The Wang family pays more attention to reputation than profit. This can be seen from the way they do business, the means. Therefore, the Wang family has never made the most money.

The style of Qianqiao Pavilion is completely different, they did it later, when it was first established, it was a tough method, the shop, the shopkeeper, and the embroidery girl, and some smaller workshops were dismantled piecemeal, forming the behemoth of Qianqiao Pavilion. The means of doing business are also, as long as the end is achieved, everything will be done.

The businesses of Splendid Villa, Wanji Embroidery Workshop, and Jinyi Pavilion have all been robbed by them, not to mention others. In the first few years of Chiu Pavilion's establishment and expansion, Kyoto's shopping malls can be said to have blown a bloody storm.

In the past few years, it has been stable, and it has only converged a little.

Just from this Qianqiao Pavilion, it can be seen that the Dongping Royal Mansion is by no means a good stubble. is the same as the feeling that Xiang Yan, the son of Dongping Shizi, gave to Hongqi, and it is better to deal with less.

The Hong family is not so short of money, so they can't take such a risk.

There are some things that can be opportunistic; But the development of the family is rather slower than steady.

Hong Qi expressed his opinion, and asked the third wife to try to contact the person in charge of the Wang family's Splendid Villa first, express her willingness to cooperate, and see the reaction over there.

Before the letter was finished, Hongda arrived, and immediately sent the girl in the house, and said: "Seventh sister, there was an accident at home, everyone was taken to the criminal department for questioning, and the house was also guarded. ”

Hong Qi was shocked and knew that something big had happened.

However, the more this time, the more calm you must be, and the more you can't panic.

So, she just calmly asked Hongda, "What happened?" ”

Her expression was calm, and her tone was no different from usual, which made Hongda's flustered heart gradually calm down, and slowly told Hongqi what had happened.

After listening, Hong Qi thought for a while and said to Hong Dao: "You go back and tell King Runan, ask him to make a proposal to the emperor, and secretly investigate the ladies who are running for this election, especially those who are most qualified to compete and their families." ”

"You mean?"

Hongda's eyes widened.

Hong Qi was about to explain, and the girl sent by the princess of Zhenbei came. This time, she invited Hong Qi to the front yard, and Hong Qi asked who wanted to see her. The girl said that it was Lord Min from the Criminal Department who asked to see her. Hongda's heart sank, and he clenched Hongqi's hand.
